Tam Valued Member United States 200 Posts	Posted 05/07/2011 7:39 pm Well, the last S is smushed a bit, I can see it looking reversed at first glance. Now, honestly a counterfeit '95 quarter? IF SO, don't report it, keep it. I'm joking a bit, but you don't have a counterfeit. I agree, not so much PMD, as some circulation wear and damage. Still a nice examination piece to help i.d. wear issues, and possible PMD issues. Report this Post to the Staff
Bullnuke Valued Member United States 184 Posts	Posted 05/07/2011 9:07 pm I agree PMD on the ding. Washington looks different on the 95 because sometime between 81 and 95 the mint retooled/updated the master die. I do not know exactly when, it is common for the mint to periodically do this as the master dies lose their sharpness after making so many working dies. Kie Report this Post to the Staff
